The Dilemma of loving what you hate & hating what you love Ivan 'Vern' Poh from URL @ 4:49 PM Today, a few hours ago, my officer (he is 20yrs old) came into my office. It is countless how many times he came over to check on us. However this time it was pretty different. I was the only one around. It's probably abt 2pm & I'd just got back from lunch & wasting some time on facebook & fifa 07. He probably would have said HI and left but this time he sat right beside. He laughed as I missed my shots. But soon, he started sharing. He told me how he hated christianity. His GF of 2yrs dumped him in the name of Christ. He was lost, then he was sad, he was destroyed then now he is angry. He asked me a lot of questions & he sincerely wanted to understand. I think he did. He was v attentive as I shared what I thought. He was in love, but now the Love took it all away. It was painful. It was stupid. I listened to him & I felt for him. I wished he knew Jesus in the way we know Him. I love Jesus. But like him & more today, I hate christianity. Christianity took the Love away. The Love which is Jesus Christ. For a lack of wisdom? Or traditional... Whatever he was told, he was sad. And so am I. I am sad that he is sad. Today, we may have lost 1 great guy to hell forever. Christians need to have convictions, strong. I have them. Unshaken. But christians need to make up their mind, have a heart that beats to the thoughts of the other 6 Billion people around us. There is always a God way.
